Chapter 545: The Vanishing Site, a CK-Class Reality Restructuring Event

~2 min read 267 words

Watching the agents who had come to "retrieve" her, 105 felt her throat tighten, a drum beating within her chest.

"Dan, Dr. Dantensen," she whimpered, "you read his report, right? My, my abilities are gone. I can't, I can't... I can't do the things I used to do anymore... I'm, I'm no longer a containment—"

"Iris," Bates interrupted the girl's performance, "Dantensen falsified your data; Neil is conducting an audit right now. By morning, the O5s will vote to revoke your release order..."

"What if you're wrong?!" Iris roared.

"What if Dantensen is right! What if I truly no longer possess my abilities?! What will you do, lock me away until I die?!?"

Her lion-like roar echoed through the waiting room, as if she were in a cave.

105 was startled by the emptiness of the waiting room. She glanced around quickly; there were no cleaners tidying the carpet, no elderly ladies tending to the card tables.

—The entire place was empty.

There was only her, and the two agents.

She began to tremble.

"Iris," Bates knelt on one knee in front of the young girl, "I know life at the site is hard..."

"That's fucking torture!"

Adrien said coldly: "Watch your language."

"Can you both just shut up and let me speak?!"

"I don't want to talk, I just want to go home."

The negotiation reached a stalemate. 105 curled back into a ball on the seat, while Adrien and Bates could only watch her.

"I'm going home, goodbye."

105 picked up her suitcase and camera, and walked toward the boarding gate. ===== CHAPTER 547 =====
